Mindfulness-Based Transpersonal Counseling

Mindfulness-Based Transpersonal Counseling is the study of psychology of the entire
human—mind, heart, body, and soul.

As a student in Naropa University’s Mindfulness-Based Transpersonal Counseling concentration—part
of the MA Clinical Mental Health Counseling program—you will not only explore human
mental and emotional health, but you will also delve into mindfulness, meditation,
Gestalt awareness as well as different states of consciousness, and the nature of
creativity to help clients—and yourself—live the most joyous life possible. Through
academic course work, deep introspection, including your own psychotherapy and mindfulness
training, and 900 hours of clinical experience, you will come to a greater understanding
of yourself, the world, and how you can ease the path for others. Graduates from Naropa’s
Mindfulness-Based Transpersonal Counseling concentration program have gone on to become
therapists in private practice, addiction counselors, mindfulness trainers, equine
therapists, school counselors, grief counselors, and more.
